[aur-general] pkgs that are in community and have "lost" tar.gz in unsupported.
by Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi 03 Mar '09

03 Mar '09

Hi people, I do not know if this is intentional, but when in doubt I will let you know. I did a comparison of the existence of packages that are http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/{pkgname}/ and also in community/{category}/{pkgname}. The list[#1] ({date} {pkgname}) have 1282 entries, and are sorted by date. (2005-2009). They may be removed, I do not know. I hope this will be helpful. Take care.

[aur-general] why my package was deleted?
by Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi 02 Mar '09

02 Mar '09

Hi I make a package "perl-ack" and was delete without any reason/notification. I guess it was because they thought it was a duplicate of the "unsupported/ack" but this is not true. The "unsupported/ack" only contains a standalone "ack", without any perl module for develop app that uses ack, and no manpages. My package contains: usr/bin/perlbin/vendor/ack usr/share/man/man1/ack.1p.gz usr/share/man/man3/Plugin.3pm.gz usr/share/man/man3/Resource.3pm.gz usr/share/man/man3/Repository.3pm.gz usr/share/man/man3/Basic.3pm.gz usr/share/man/man3/Ack.3pm.gz usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/App/Ack.pm usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/App/Ack/Repository.pm usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/App/Ack/Plugin/ usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/App/Ack/Resource.pm usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/App/Ack/Plugin.pm usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/App/Ack/Plugin/Basic.pm Reupload? -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi ( djgera ) http://www.djgera.com.ar KeyID: 0x1B8C330D Key fingerprint = 0CAA D5D4 CD85 4434 A219 76ED 39AB 221B 1B8C 330D

[aur-general] Package Removal Request (various)
by M Rawash 02 Mar '09

02 Mar '09

here's a few packages that are no longer needed in AUR - hamster-applet (part of gnome, in extra) - xulrunner-devel (older than extra/xulrunner) - ejourn (project no longer exists) - openoffice.org-style-human (no longer exists) - gnome-device-manager (part of gnome, in extra) - gnome-panel-ubuntu (no longer exists) - firefox-qt-mercurial-ubuntu (no longer exists) i suggest the TU's do a "AUR cleanup day", we sort of had something like that back in openSUSE, where the devs get together (on irc) and organise a "bug squashing day" - basically we go into bugzilla and pickup invalid and wontfix bugs and start deleting or otherwise fix/assign them - ideas? regards, M Rawash

[aur-general] winetools in community

Hi does anyone know whats the deal with the winetools package in community? Is it still useful? The wine wiki http://wiki.jswindle.com/index.php/Winetools says its obsolete in favour of winetricks(?) But it also says its GPLed while the homepage http://www.von-thadden.de/Joachim/WineTools/index.html#legal clearly states otherwise.

Hello, according to the recent proposal (see http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2008-December/003207.html) there should not be packages added to community with less than 10 votes or less than 1% in pkgstats. The new package moreutils violates this. So what is to do now? Regards

Comments seem to get burried, or forgotten. Most people prefer commenting for many reasons. I apologise in advance, cause i will make 15-20 additional reports tomorrow. :) PS. Is there any chance to get lists like that in the newsletter for example? I think it would be cool to notify people like that say once a month, and the newsletter draws attention of many people. -- Greg
